【题目】Science has just proven what we’ve suspected all along that sitting at a desk all day could be making us fat.According to a new study women who work in an office are consuming a shocking 100,030 extra calories in snacks every year—which can add up to a terrifying two stone in weight gain.Yikes!

The research quizzed 1,000 women who work in offices and revealed that on a typical working day women prefer to have at least three snacks,which adds up to almost 500 calories.

Crisps were named as the top weak point of female workers,with an average of 135 bags eaten at work annually and 45 per cent of those surveyed admitting to having “hidden” food personally in the office.Unsurprisingly biscuits were also a favorite desk snack with 39%admitting to hiding away packets of biscuits and the average woman dipping 135 biscuits in their tea every year.Office“cake culture’’ likely has a role to play in the ninety slices of cake women are wolfing down each year.The study also revealed we’re indulging(放纵)our sweet tooth by ploughing through 90 packets of sweets and 45 doughnuts throughout the working year.

Just over a fifth of female workers admit they have absolutely no willpower when it comes to office treats,while three in ten say they eat the food purely because it's there.Women also mentioned being bored,tired or stressed as common reasons for them to eat more in the office.

The survey revealed that so-called “low fat’’ treats are actually adding to that yearly calorific total,with the average female employee consuming 45 packets of high-fat nuts and another 45 bags of sugary dried fruits,every year.The most popular times to reach for a snack are 10:30 am and 3:30 pm,with 48% of women saying they are always too hungry to wait until lunch.Women also admitted sugary coffees and energy drinks help get them through the day.

1How did the researchers find the result of their study?

A. They found it met their expectation. B. They felt confused and puzzled.

C. They found it quite amusing. D. They felt quite surprised.

2Women have snacks almost at any time because they_______________.

A. are free to go out when hungry

B. have put them away in advance

C. have too little work to do in the office

D. have the same favourite food with the colleagues

3When are women more likely to have snacks in their office?

A. When they have finished hard jobs.

B. When they get their new work started.

C. When they feel tired or anxious.

D. When they feel relaxed and comfortable.

4What does the passage want to tell us?

本文为说明文。科学刚刚证明我们一直怀疑整天坐在办公桌前会使我们发胖。根据一项新的研究,在办公室工作的女性每年在零食中多摄取100030卡路里的热量,而这些热量加起来会使体重增加两块石头重。接着分析了为何办公室的女性喜欢吃零食的原因。

1推理判断题。第一段说科学刚刚证明我们一直怀疑整天坐在办公桌前会使我们发胖。根据一项新的研究在办公室工作的女性每年在零食中摄取的热量加起来会使体重增加两块石头重。及最后一个词“Yikes! ”,哎呀!表示惊讶,分析选项可知D项(他们相当惊讶)符合题意,故选D项。

2推理判断题。第四段倒数第二句“while three in ten say they eat the food purely because it's there.(十分之三的妇女说她们吃零食完全是因为零食就在身边。)由此可知,她们身边就一直提前备好零食,分析选项可知B项符合题意

3细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Women also mentioned being bored,tired or stressed as common reasons for them to eat more in the office.”可知,无聊、疲倦或压力是她们在办公室里多吃零食的常见原因。分析选项可知C项正确。

4主旨大意题。第一段是本文的主题段。科学刚刚证明我们一直怀疑整天坐在办公桌前会使我们发胖。根据一项新的研究,在办公室工作的女性每年在零食中多摄取100030卡路里的热量,而这些热量加起来会使体重增加两块石头重接着分析了为何办公室的女性喜欢吃零食的原因,吸收了大量的热量,最终导致了发胖。分析选项可知A正确。

概括主旨的方法是:先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句,若无明显主题句,就通过关键词句来概括,抓住文章主线和关键词语,归纳文章中心。要注意不是所有的段落都有主题句,有时主题句暗含在句中。阅读这样的文章,就需要自己根据文章的细节来分析,概括出段落的主题,从而推导出文章的主旨。分析的方法是:先弄清该段落主要讲了哪几方面的内容,这些内容在逻辑上有什么联系,然后加以归纳形成主题。如第4小题,第一段是本文的主题段,以下内容都是该项调查的内容和结果。科学刚刚证明我们一直怀疑整天坐在办公桌前会使我们发胖。根据一项新的研究,在办公室工作的女性每年在零食中多摄取100030卡路里的热量,而这些热量加起来会使体重增加两块石头重。接着分析了为何办公室的女性喜欢吃零食的原因,并分析由于吸收了大量的热量,最终导致了发胖。分析选项可知A正确。

【题目】请阅读下面短文。并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。

The national box office set a record in 2017, almost 56 billion yuan, up 13 percent from 2016. Last year, there were 92 films whose revenue(收入)exceeded 100 million yuan each including 51 Chinese films. About 1.62 billion tickets were bought, up 18 percent year-on-year. In 2017, the Chinese film industry produced 798 dramas, 32 animation films and 44 documentaries in all. Fifteen films earned more than 1 billion yuan each at the box office, up from nine in 2016.

In the coming days, records will likely be broken and history will be made as China’s film industry appears to be on the turning point of a new era, industry insiders said. This year, the number of new film releases, box-office earnings, and even stock-market performance of shares listed entertainment companies and expected to be higher, they said.

Filmgoers’ reviews have had an increasingly significant impact on the box office more than other factors such as the participation of pop celebrities in pre-release promotions, a media professor said. Also, viewers are no longer getting influenced by big names alone. They don’t care whether the film is Chinese, Hollywood, European, or Indian, as long as it has substance(内容). Even a low-budget film with little-known cast and crew could emerge as a hit, industry observers said.
